I was trying to put a 1.125" hole through a piece of steel that's 1.5"
x 2.5" x 1". I was using a mill and the only 1 1/8" cutter that the
shop I was in had. It made a really lousy rough cut that's also about
.012" oversized. This piece needs to be split to clamp down tight on a
1 1/8" post.

Anyone have a suggestion for how to fix it up?



Saw a number of dead end radial slots out from the ID somewhat like on
adjustable thread gages...

This'll allow the ID conform more closely to the diameter of the pin as
the clamp is tightened.
